public:

    array<wchar_t>^ anyOf, 
    int startIndex, 
    int count
)
member IndexOfAny :

        startIndex:int * 
        count:int -> int 
public function IndexOfAny(
    anyOf : char[], 
    startIndex : int, 
    count : int
) : int

Parameters

  • anyOf
    Type: array<System. . :: . .Char> [] () [] []
    A Unicode character array containing one or more characters to seek.

Return Value

Type: System. . :: . .Int32
The zero-based index position of the first occurrence in this instance where any character in anyOf was found; -1 if no character in anyOf was found.

Remarks

The search begins at startIndex and continues to startIndex + count -1. The character at startIndex + count is not included in the search.

Index numbering starts from zero. The startIndex parameter can range from 0 to one less than the length of the string instance.

The search for anyOf is case-sensitive.
